Answer:

x=
(B)/(3(1 + 3y))

or

x =
(B)/((3 + 9y))

Explanation:

The given equation is B = 3x + 9xy

We have to solve for x.

B = 3x + 9xy

Let's factor the above equation.

B = 3x(1 + 3y)

We need to solve for x.

So, divide both sides by (1 + 3y), we get


(B)/((1+ 3y)) = (3x(1+3y))/((1 +3y))


(B)/((1 + 3y)) = 3x

This can be written as


3x = (B)/((1 + 3y))

Now dividing both sides by 3, we get

x=
(B)/(3(1 + 3y))

or

x =
(B)/((3 + 9y))
